Prof j. f. Weir, IN Scribner for August
1t may not be generally known that we are now
in the midst OF a great revival of handicrafr
which has assumed the character Of a practfcaI
protest against the dominant Influence OF ma
chine-manufacture that tends to reduce distinc-
tons OF labor TO common level
Inis revival OF handicraft may be said to have

the world OF letters and art. fund OF some few
hundreds, or thousands, OF pounds was subscribed
by those gentlemen and their friends, and shoD
opened with the sign morris, Rossetti & Co." for
the purpose Of rehabilitating hahdicraft and ar
tlStlc design In various kinds OF household art.
Tne gentlemen named furnished the designs,
and they were executed on the premises by skilled
W0rKnen, comprising various kinds OF metal and
cabinet work, which has since extended TO a wide
range OF household art. The aim was to reassert
the true dignity OF foa,ldicrttl: and as say the
undertaking assumed the form of practical prO.
test against the leyeling and often tawdry fUfiu-
ence of machine manufacture In many kinds OF
Industry, which obliterates all sense of the arts
Tie, and Is destructive OF skilled craftsmanship
The activity OF the time is marked by a moving
forward OF the mass at the expense OF the indi.
viduai ior the exclusively unitarian aim OF ma
ehine-manWaeture tends to level all distinctions
New channels for skilled labor are rapidly null

craft, and they who have watched the prog

more than an ephemera effect of present tastes
For this revival OF craftsmanship nOweyeryWh here

A Phase Of the servant Question.

From the Boston Courier.
III know they must be new-rich people an OBJ
servant old lady remarked OF some late arrivals at
the fashionable house where she was STAYING
"because they are SO rude to their servants" The
observation was one which good many people
who pride themselves and not always uniust,y.
on their good breeding would do Well to lay to
heart. The class is by no means small OF those
who have strong impulse TO prove their own su-
per1Ority by insisting continually On the tnferf-
GRITTY OF those who serve them. They are SO lit
tie sure OF their place Or dignity as to be pursued
by necessity OF continually putting forward
some proof OF It, and the method OF doing this
most obvious to their minds is to brow beat and
1il-uSe their attendants.
The old saying that man Is not hero to his
valet takes half its force from this fact servants
are seldom devoid Of the power OF detecting a
sham dignity, however dull they may be in the
comprehension OF other matters. They under
air OF easy insolence by means Of which Mrs ShOd-
dy hopes to impress behOlders with a due SENSE OF
her own Importance as compared to the social
standing OF the 1li-used men1als. They may or
nobody else. but at least they seldom likely to
be taken in by It. And it Is equally sure that no
one at all familiar with life can be duped by the
shallow and vulgar artifice. People who are ac-
CuStomed to servants and who have been reared in
families having any claims to good breeding would
be perhaps more likely to be rude to a social equal
than to a servant.
AS a simple matter OF policy moreover. It is ex
tremely silly to be rude to hireings. Money BUYS
certain grade OF service but that which is at all
1t Is not the people who buster at their ATTENDANTS
f1Ort and abuse them, and insist always ,Inon as.
sorting their wills and their position who are best
served. A kind bearing often effects more than
that the world ought by this time to have learned
and heed It.

From the Manchester, Eng, Courier
A clergyman, the vicar Of Pitsmoor has been
speaking on the modes of marriage in and near
Sheffield He states that people are there mar

times TO lick the lady's delicate little finger to
induce the stubborn ring TO move On. 1t seems
10 be no uncommon thing 70 ind that the ring
Is the difficulty through its presence or absence.
"Ihen again" says the vicar, "when they

service where the minister asks the man II he

HOW DIX. TUTTLk WON The HEARTS OF ROUGH CIT.
zENS OF THE WEST
About score OF years ago, before the railroad
had crossed the Rocky Mountains Bishop futile
was sent as missionary to the Northwestern
Territories, says Helena, Mon, correspondent.
But never was a man better fitted by nature and
grace for his high mission. OF heroic stature I'm
every physical sense man among men he had a
heart for any fate and q courage and Resolution
equal to any demand.
HIS hand, strong as giants, was soft and white
as wOmanS, and more than once he had made
some fnsoient and sacrilegious brute feel
its might, but far OfJener 1t had Wrourht sweet
charity and tenderly nurSed the sick and brought
comfort to the dying, to rough men, In lonely cab

made their troubles his own, and when the rude
mOunta1nesrS. as they presently did came TO
know this strong, brave and gentle man his fame
went through the mountains and he became the
beloved bishop.
The good bishop was soon at the height Of popu-
larity. The mOuntaineers had tested hfs MANHOOD
and they were ready to love and trust him for the
friend and counsellor he proved to be- and the pOp-
ular verdict was sOlemnly announced by Nr VIM.

Mime. Nilsson at Home.

THE GREAT SINGERS SURROUNDINGS IN HER HOME
IN KENSINGToN COURT.
Olive Logan, in the Indianapolis Journal
The home Of Christine Nilsson at Kensington
Court is one Of the most luxuriant bonbonnieres
in London. 1t may really be looked upon as her
bridal bower, for previously she occupied house
in Belgravia, which, though very fine and expen-
sive, was not half so charming as the beautiful
nest In which the nightingale now reposes. The
gaging and hospitable warmth at the door OF her
drawing room, an apartment crowded with
artistic furniture, richly carved and gilded,

with exquisite ancient fans several Of which are

old silver clasps. Sculptured worries, FURNISHED

round with costly crystals, which sparkle almost
like diamonds, marble bust OF the diva standing
on buhl table under the graceful foliage OF
crowned heads, whose sovereign fingers have
offered these tributes, with their autographs to
Christine Nilsson, are few OF the many interest
ing objects upon which the charmed eye OF the
visitor falls.
Right well and happy does the celebrated song
stress look to-day in her dark blue gown Of satin

vantage the white and shapely arms. touch OF

wonderful parure of sapphires and diamonds with
which her ears, neck, fingers and arms are adorned.

man seems TO be OF his renowned and fascinating
wife; and the pleasant little daughter who has
brought them together, fits from one parent to the
other, as joyous as bird In the sunshine She is
quite Spanish in her cOlOrng, and though She has
fine black eyes, would scarcely be called beauty

From The St Louis Republican,
There is one thing about tobacco that has always
surprised microscopes, and which Is highly
favorable TO that distinguished weed It is the
purest Of all vegetable substances when placed
under microscope. There is an entire absence
OF micro-oFganisms OF every description. While
acids, are alive with animated ubstances-hacte
ma anlInalcul9, microbes, or fungi of some kind
tobacco is entirely free OF everything OF the Kind
noers and texture-its organic structure. Nor
does this condition appear TO change. All through
the different processes OF its manufacture affer
same appearance. The microbes appears tn
shun tobacco, probably because OF Ats destructive
qualities TO the lower organisms

AT the State Convention Of the
United Labor party here to-day q
resolution favoriag the adoption OF
the Syracuse platform was offered
and strongly opposed, several dele,
gates advocating the adoption Of the
Cincinnati platform Of the Union La
Dor party. The debate resulted in
the adoption Of series of resolutions
endorsing the free soil platform of
1852, fsvoring q single tax on land
value, and declaring that "all such
monopolies as have been built up by
the assistance of the Government
through the grant If special privi-
leges, and all necessary enterprises
exceeding the power Of individual
ability should be owned and con-
trolled by the Government, as the
postal service now is.'
The resolutions also declare in fa
vor Of the Australian system of
voting.
Resolutions were also adopted pro
viding for conference between the
State executive committee Of Missori
and that Of New York, and such
other States as are organized, for the
purpose of arranging for call for q
national conference Of the United
Labor party. St. Louis was recon-
mended as the best location for the
National Convention.
Plans were adopted for thorough
organization throughout Missouri.
